Summer Sounds Downtown 2026 lineup

HOPE – Hope Downtown Network (HDN), in partnership with the Klipsch Museum of Audio History, is excited to announce the lineup for Summer Sounds Downtown, a free outdoor concert series set to bring music, energy, and community spirit to historic downtown Hope.
Taking place on the 4th Thursday nights in May, June, and July from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, the concerts will be held at The HUB in downtown Hope. The HUB in Pavilion Park, on 2nd and Elm Street, offers the perfect setting for an evening of live music.

2026 Summer Sounds Downtown Lineup:
May 28- COVIE
June 25 – Hazy Jayne
July 23 – Trey Johnson & Friends

Each month will feature a unique musical style, creating a dynamic and engaging experience for attendees of all ages. COVIE offers faith-based music that will uplift and bless all in attendance. Hazy Jayne brings unforgettable country with a twist of rock. Trey Johnson always provides a night of high energy. He is definitely a hometown favorite in that he has played the live concerts at the HUB. All artists have played the Klipsch Auditorium in years past.

“Summer Sounds Downtown is more than a concert series; it’s about creating a vibrant atmosphere where our community can gather, support local businesses, and celebrate the heart of Hope,” stated Ginny Sanders, Managing Director with Klipsch Museum.

Attendees are encouraged to come early and enjoy downtown shopping and dining before music begins. A local favorite, Sweet Escape will be onsite each night, selling cool drinks and more that will only add a fun and flavorful touch to the evening.

Hope Downtown Network Executive Director Beckie Moore shared, “We are excited about this music series because it does more than bring great music to downtown, it fuels downtown revitalization. By attracting both residents and visitors to Hope’s historic district, it sparks energy, strengthens momentum, and showcases the unique charm and promise of downtown Hope.
